My 18x9.5 +10 fits in the front perfect, are you sure that's the offset?

Skvnger 07-28-2014 04:59 PM

Yeah its stamped in the back of the wheel, however the previous owner stated they where et5 so there around 7

SamPappas 07-28-2014 05:12 PM

Well maybe I just need to lower mine more and space it more then :P

Skvnger 07-28-2014 05:17 PM

Haha! Yours looks good! if you do space it you have to cut away most of the indicator or it will rub like mad :)

SamPappas 07-28-2014 05:37 PM

I'm happy to have my lights still there seeing as how most just give up and take them out

I hate when people are lazy and don't have the corners. Get it right, get it tight.

SamPappas 07-28-2014 10:56 PM

^ I won't ever remove my corners. If it comes down to it, I'll raise the car before I remove the corners. Just makes the car look kinda rigged up and unfinished

Raise it up a bit if that's what it takes. I agree

hocknscary87 08-14-2014 08:47 PM

Yep, IG!

I come on here randomly from time to time, to check things out. Sometimes looking at the classified section because, who knows!

Awesome to see all these 8s rocking aggressive fitment these days, and slammed, too!

Some people who have low cars with aggressive fitment these days were hell bent against it back in the day. My, how times change :lol:

I've always been about it, but I think I'm ready for change. Gonna raise it up some and run like 265/35's or 255/35's and have more of a track oriented stance. Still gonna be low but a different kind of animal.

TrickWilliams 08-20-2014 01:00 PM

Like NYC's Beast of a car? Been thinking about the same thing for the next season.

SamPappas 08-20-2014 03:45 PM

YESSS that's what I want

I'll contribute 18x9.5 +20 235/40 all around. Next summer I'll be going with 255s or 265s depending on my next set of wheels. I'm eyeing a set of Works or maybe Advans Gram Lights for next summer. I hate the stretched look now lol.
